Hello! Yep, you would need to cancel the existing incomplete Subscription and create a new one in that scenario. As you found, an incomplete Subscription can't be modified in the way you're attempting.

#

The formatting issue was due to using underscores. Discord lets you do _this_ which will make "this" italic: this

#

If you want to use literal underscores you can surround your text with backticks to format it as code.

Happy to help!

FWIW, Stripe has some of the best API docs I've come across, but don't think the constraints re: updating are mentioned in docs. Might be worth adding (in pursuit of making docs even "bester").

#

Take care.

You too, thanks for the feedback!

Two follow up questions — 1.) do we need to do anything to delete invoice items from the initial incomplete subscription? And 2.) will the cancelled incomplete subscription be distinguishable from a canceled activated subscription if we list all subscriptions for a customer?

#

We allow customers to to see a list of their contributions, which we get from Stripe, and we'd only want to show completed ones to them, not ones like this that were cancelled before activation.

For #1, no, canceling the Subscription is all you need to do. An incomplete Subscription's Invoice is in the open state, and if the Subscription is canceled it won't move forward. However, if you have created pending Invoice Items, those will need to be deleted.
